Early approach of the transversal malocclusions, diagnosis and treatment. Literature review
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Summary: The issue of transversal malocclusions has been widely studied by
many authors around the world and researched from many perspectives: skeletal, muscular, dental and
functional. Reports describe the different etiologies, complications and compromises of
malocclusion, leading to a general consensus that, the sooner it is corrected, the less their
consequences and negative effects on growth and development will be, and good results can be
achieved with great long-term stability. Therefore the aim of this paper is to identify through a
literature review, the necessary tools that allow the detection, diagnosis and treatment of these
malocclusions at an early stage and to prevent severe skeletal asymmetries. Key words: Transversal
malocclusions. Cross-bite. Unilateral posterior crossbite. Bilateral posterior. Crossbite. Planas
direct tracks. Early transverse treatment.
